Thursday, March 27, 2014. Liam's life, lately. A little of what life is looking like these days over here:. Liam is pretty much into everything these days. Life as we know it has changed. We watched him take his first crawling steps and within 24 hours he was proving me wrong in the assumption that our house was pretty baby friendly. He is starting to participate in story time. Usually that means trying to eat or smack the book, but sometimes he digs the pictures. Or the textures in his book. Do you ever...

lotus tree crafts: why is there such a lack of diversity in children's literature
http://www.lotustreecrafts.com/2014/12/why-is-there-such-lack-of-diversity-in.html
Tuesday, December 9, 2014. Why is there such a lack of diversity in children's literature. I don't know if you've noticed this or not, but a lot of the books out there that we read to our children are pretty problematic in regards to diversity and it's starting to REALLY bother me. Because right now we have 2, yes only 2, books geared towards toddlers (in other words a board book that he can't tear apart) that hint at a reality that is different than an all white majority. One measly Thomas the Train.

Tuesday, December 23, 2014. Before Liam was born, I had the best of intentions to document his early years but life seems to have other plans for us! And sometimes I find that sad because honestly, so much is changing in his world, on a daily basis and it's so hard to remember it all because things change so quickly. Right now Liam loves playing phone and can say eyo. Which we think is Hello). He says this. He's learning to throw a ball and push cars. He walks on his tip toes all the time and is craz...

Friday, January 31, 2014. Joys of motherhood: shit they don't tell you beforehand. Sleep aides: a love hate relationship. A true story brought to you by a sleep deprived mama. It's 4am as I write this. I have bounced and rocked, swayed and sang for over an hour. Currently Liam is in his crib watching his mobile while I recoup for round 2. And I'm sort of dreading it. Hell, I bounce so much on it I feel sometimes like my spine is being flattened. When I stand my knees and hips crack. Before you know it, I...

Monday, February 16, 2015. Liam's First Hair Cut! My little man finally has enough hair to merit a hair cut. Check him out:. I'm actually a little surprised to say that the hair cut actually made his hair look thicker. Go figure! We cut it at home, figuring that we couldn't mess up his hair more than it looked like at the moment with the crazy wings. And we didn't. But we're in for some fun bed head over the next few weeks!

Monday, April 28, 2014. Girly yet neutral baptism card. It's a tricky line but I think I managed to get it in this particular card:. The pattern paper is Bazzil and the plain, American Crafts. I used ribbon from the Dollar Store. The edges were done with an EK punch and the flower is Stampin' Up stamp/ink. It's for the baptism of Paul's cousin's daughter so I went girly. I figure since I won't be having any girls in my home aside from myself and the cat, I need to embrace the girly when I can! He's start...

Friday, August 8, 2014. 5 Current Health Goals. So now that I'm back to work and not at home (read constantly surrounded by food temptations), it's time to get by butt in gear and lose some weight. I know, I know. I've talked about this before. And I'm not going to talk about it at length here except to say that I'm setting the following goals (and declaring them publicly so that I have to hold myself accountable to them):. Get out to yoga at least once a week. I recently made use of this groupon. Get ou...
